Hi! I just installed LMDE 201303, everything is OK, but i broke Grub to boot Windows.The thing is that I accidentally installed Grub on sda1. After that Grub didnt work at all: I wasn't able to boot Mint or Windows. I solved this installing Grub from LiveCD again on sda (without the "1") and now i can boot Mint, but when i choose the Windows start option on Grub, it loads Grub again.. sda1 is a NTFS partition with Windows system files in it)I was looking for solutions.. I shoud delete the grub installation on sda1 to make it work but i can't find how..The only thing i found is doing this:

but when i ran the "for" i got an error that /dev/pts /proc /sys folders doesnt exist (why shoud them, its a Windows partition!). After that, i created manually that folders and i coud mount them. Another error came when i tried to chroot, saying "/bin/bash" folder didnt exist, and copying that folder from my Mint didnt solve that =P.

So, how do i delete Grub from sda1? Doing that i will be able to boot Windows again, right?Thanks in advance.

Sorry, my mistake. I now see sda1 is a Windows partition. I thought it was the Mint partition.What I wanted you to do is to boot into Mint (whatever partition that is on)and run the commands I posted earlier from a terminal.That should move grub to sda and pick up the Windows partition on sda1.

Its ok, thanks anyway. Im trying to install again MBR on sda1 now..Edit: I cant intall MBR on sda1 xD. I have to do it on sda and it doesnt solve my issue..Edit2: Runing that made the Windows option disappear from Grub

I think ill get an Windows install CD and use the Recovery console to reset everything.. Then ill install grub again
